For everyone — Command Reference

Commands and function summaries, grouped the same way as on the Settings page. For detailed behavior of each command, see Command Details.

  • The Command Name column shows the name as it appears on Obsidian's own Hotkeys panel.
    • Each command name links to that command's entry on the Command Details page.
  • The Recommended Hotkey column shows the key assigned by the Apply recommended button or the Set button.
    • On Windows, some of these overlap with Obsidian's own standard hotkeys. After applying, check the Displaced commands list to see what happened to the command that previously held that hotkey.
    • On macOS, read Ctrl as control.
    • "—" means no recommended hotkey is set. Click the Open → button to open Obsidian's own Hotkeys panel and assign a hotkey of your choice manually.
  • Commands with "✓" in the Key Repeat column support key repeat.

Add cursor​

These 2 commands are reimplemented to avoid the unstable behavior of Obsidian's standard "Add cursor above"/"Add cursor below" commands.
